They PhDid It! (Part 2): Dr Phan and SERS

by Nurhidayah Binte Amirhamzsa, Wong Xin Yi and Kow Zi Shan | Aug 21, 2020

Every year in CoS, dozens of PhD students defend their thesis and earn their doctorate, the highest university degree. In this series, we catch up with some new doctors to find out about their experience of doing a PhD in CoS, what made them embark on the intense four year journey and what plans they have for the future. Next up, we have Dr Phan Quang Gia Chuong, a Research Fellow in SPMS.

Emerging opportunities in SERS: analyte manipulation and hybrid materials

by Nurhidayah Binte Amirhamzsa | Sep 23, 2019

Scientists in NTU have identified promising strategies to improve surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), namely via analyte manipulation and creating hybrid SERS platforms. Headed by Ling Xing Yi at NTU’s School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, the group has shown that these two techniques are emerging strategies to address limitations found in traditional SERS platforms. These findings were reported in November 2018 in the journal Chemical Society Reviews.
